Ok, I recently wrote an essay [here] talking about the definition and duties of civil engineering as well as the ethics because of the brain rot @swordfright gave me with calling Dream Sam’s ultimate engineering project. So, because I actually am a civil engineer I took it upon myself to design the title and summary of quantities sheets just like I do at work for roads but with Dream as the project instead. And in honor of angst day sponsored by @sixteenth-day-event, I figured I’d share it because I feel like it kinda works for the prison of the mind prompt.
“Sam’s “ultimate engineering project” he deemed too damaged like a bumpy road or crumbling building that wasn’t worthy of patching and filling in the cracks or reinforcing, that’s too eroded to be fixed and preserved. So, Sam strived to tear him down to the bedrock so he could remake, remold, and reengineer Dream according to his design for the common safety, public health and well-fair.”
{These are very similar to the actual sheets I make day to day, which I shall not share for the sake of doxing my location, but yea pretty much everything has a significance. Some of it doesn’t necessarily make sense but that was because I was more so taking inventory of what we see in lore (so you know I counted ;) lol)}

Steve making the most pining, sad boy mixtape that he listens to on repeat. It's about his friend Eddie.
Eddie who is clueless about Steve's pining. Eddie who is the most tactile person he's ever met. So he's always slinging an arm around Steve or leaning on his shoulder during movie night. He'll run and jump on Steve's back for a piggyback ride or tackle him into the pool. It's slowly killing Steve because Eddie has no idea that Steve's in love with him.
In fact, for all the flirting Eddie does with Steve, the man has no idea he's even queer. 100 percent oblivious. Eddie has convinced himself that it's totally normal to flirt with everyone (he only flirts with Steve) and that it doesn't mean anything to cuddle your male friend on a regular basis (it means something) and poor Stevie is just suffering.
Maybe Eddie needs a ride one day because his van craps out, so he asks Steve to drive him to Indy and of course, the tape starts. after the first few songs Eddie's is having some thoughts. One, who the fuck is this tape about? Whoever it is, Steve clearly has BIG feelings for this girl. It makes Eddie feel like shit.
So he just keeps listening until he finally snaps and asks Steve who the chick is. Steve's confused, but Eddie presses further. He asks who the tape is about.
"What's her name? The girl you made this mix for?"
"There's no girl." Steve replies. His voice is tight like he's upset. Eddie would be so, so confused.
"Um, this is like some unrequited love pop music shit. Obviously you're in love with someone, so what's her name?" Eddie has to push.
Steve just tells Eddie to fuck off. They're both sorta pissed now. Eddie thought they were good enough friends that Steve would tell him. Steve can't have this conversation considering he's in love with his friend.
"Why won't you tell me her name...c'mon Stevie, I won't make fun of you. Is it Nancy again? Shitty considering she's dating Robbie. Tell me. Please. I'm dying to know who could have possibly inspired this mixtape." Eddie knows he's being an ass. He will get Steve to tell him.
Steve says nothing. Literally says nothing the rest of the way to Indy and back. It's not until they're pulling back into Hawkins that Eddie starts pestering again.
"Come on, dude. Who is this mystery girl you're so head over heels for? I mean literally, you put that song on there. Tears for Fears man, tell me, tell me, tell me-"
"It's not about a a girl. Shut the fuck up, man." Steve finally snaps. Eddie is just repeating over and over for Steve to tell him and it's annoying that he's so sure it's some girl.
"Then who?"
"I made the tape about you, asshole."
"What?"
"It's not some girl I'm in love with, it's you Eddie." Steve finally admits and he watches Eddie's face drop in horror. As Steve pulls up to Eddie's trailer, neither of them say a word. Steve is contemplating driving his car into a tree and Eddie is in shock. Because this cannot be happening, Eddie is straight and um, he definitely does not like Steve Harrington. Definitely isn't having a full fledged crisis right now.
"Man, I'm not... I'm not gay. I don't like you that way." Eddie finally tells him, refusing to meet Steve's eyes. Why does every word he just said feel like it's breaking Eddie apart too. He isn't sure he's being honest with Steve right now, but he cannot deal with this. He can't deal with the heartbreak all over Steve's face.
So Eddie gets out of the car and walks into his trailer. He doesn't look back or slow down. Steve is a second away from losing it. What was just pining is a rejection now. Worse than that, it feels like the whole world just fell down around Steve.
Despite how scared Steve was to tell Eddie, blatant rejection wasn't something he was worried about. Eddie flirted with him all the time. Always touching, always leaning into Steve's space. Calling him big boy or sweetheart. How could Steve have been so wrong? Eddie wasn't even into guys, let alone Steve. Eddie specifically said that he didn't like Steve that way. Eddie doesn't want him.
So, Steve listens to his sad mixtape and swears he'll move on even if that feels impossible.
Psst: read the follow up Moving On Pt. 1

Suegiku fic that’s just Tetchou helping Jouno open up and accept his own emotions, since Jouno has kinda perfected the whole ‘bury your emotions so deep that you can’t even feel them anymore’ thing due to his time in the mafia. Ofc we all know Jouno has no problem expressing stuff like anger, bitterness, disgust… basically all those negative ones used mostly in a comical manner for his character. It’s rly just his sadness that he’s tries to disown as he’s already deemed it as a ‘weak’ emotion that doesn’t do anything except make ppl pity and underestimate him, which needless to say, he HATES more than anything. So yeah, Tetchou would help him realize that feelings of sadness are completely valid and that he deserves to express those emotions instead of bottling them up. (Ngl Tetchou would honestly still be kinda learning this alongside Jouno because he’s probably so used to his stoicism-like mindset.)
‘Your Tears are Priceless’ would be a good title, i think; in reference to his ‘Priceless Tears’ ability.

Carcar is ruining my life.
I have this girl!Oscar plot idea for You'd be standing in my garage light, and everything I could think of is turning it into a Carcar. To be clear, I'm very doubtful about You'd be standing in my garage light (Landoscar - girl! Oscar) because I'm very disappointed about the chapter that I wrote and I think it misses some spice (guess it's kinda chilli spice now).
I know some of you read it and I want your opinion.
So here it is, some elements for the Carcar :
It's a rivals to rivals with benefits to we're both catching feeling and we're miserable about to secret lovers to lovers.
Lando being obvious.
Lando is a man on a quest : convince his teammate and grid best friend to be friend.
Radio beef / Race beef / "he's blind" / "did she learns something in her rookie year, or what?"
"Fine, but I only do it because of Lando."
Landoscar twinning.
Oscar being the chillest person in the world except when it comes to Carlos.
Basically Oscar being Oscar
Oscar being a pr nightmare but in a funny way like : "Whaouh the FIA fighting patriarchy with tee-shirt? I'm wondering why nobody think about it before."
Lestappen acting as a platonic married couple.
Lestappen knowing there is a girl in Carlos life and acting as wingmans.
Silly season.
Real fight for the championship.
Carlos "What are you going to do? Fired me? You already done that" Sainz.
"You look like Eric in the little mermaid but not as a compliment".
Ollie Bearman is adopted by the grid.
Prema guys (Logan / Arthur / Robert / Fred) .
Fernando has seen this film before...
Oscar involved in the F1 Academy + the F1 Academy girl.
What it could be like to be the only girl on the grid.
1989 strike is back except it's just George who want to hijack a bus.
"I'm not going to sacrifice my career for you. If we doing this and we got caught, I'll throw you under a bus." (not the same)
If I write the Carcar I'll have to delete You'd be standing in my garage light. Also if I write the Carcar, we're going from teen and up audiance to explicit.
Feel free to go on my ask or message box.
I just don't know what to do 🤷♀️

@wolfstarmicrofic prompt: forget
“I wish I could care.”
It came out of nowhere, the two of them sat at a table in Grimmauld Place, sipping tea in silence.
“Hm?” Remus lifted his head, confused.
“I- I wish I could care that I don’t miss you.”
Remus tried to hide the shattering of his heart. He already knew that.
Why did it still hurt?
“I never thought I’d forget how to love you, you know.” Sirius said with a hollow laugh, sending a chill down Remus’ spine.
He had never seen Sirius’ eyes so empty.
